Songs For Your Metal Party

This is my personal selection of albums (with specific songs) that you'd like to play in your next metal party.
The songs are sorted so the more powerful and energetic songs are equally spread all along the list, except the last songs, which are softer than average.

I'm currently working in this list (well... in my spare time), so it's not the final one.

1.Unexpect - Fables Of The Sleepless Empire
2.Korpiklaani - Karkelo
3.Solefald - Norrøn Livskunst
4.Mastodon - Crack The Skye
5.Kvelertak - Blodtørst
